We promised you would be the first to know when we had BIG news, and here it is! Yahoo! Mail has added apps, including an app by OtherInbox called Organizer. Please help us get the word out there, and sign up for Y!MailApps at http://bit.ly/13N2b! What is OtherInbox, and what does it do?OtherInbox, Inc. is an Austin-based company that builds technology to automatically organize email messages from online shopping and social networking sites, letting you focus on the messages from real people first. OtherInbox launched publicly in September 2008 at the TechCrunch50 event in San Francisco. http://www.otherinbox.com/

What is the Organizer application, and how does it work?The Organizer application automatically finds the email messages in your Yahoo! Mail that are not from real people and organizes them into folders. Every morning, you'll receive a daily digest showing all of the messages that have arrived in the past 24 hours to ensure that you never miss anything. In just a few clicks, your Yahoo! Mail Inbox gets smaller, leaving just the most important messages from coworkers, family and friends. OtherInbox scans your Yahoo! Mail account for those automatic, computer-generated messages that tend to pile up, such as newsletters, coupons, Facebook notifications, Twitter updates, and many more. You want those messages, but you probably don't need to see them right away. It's easy for these automated messages to clutter up your Inbox so much that it becomes difficult to notice the important emails! OtherInbox automatically puts these messages into folders. You'll see one for News, Shopping, Social Networks, et cetera. You don't have to configure any rules or filters - everything happens automatically. These folders help you quickly find what you are looking for when you need it. For example, if you're looking for a receipt for something you just purchased, click on the Shopping folder.Every morning, OtherInbox will send you a daily digest of new messages from the past 24 hours, making it easy to decide which messages need your attention and which can wait until later.OtherInbox looks for important dates in your emails, such as UPS and Fedex shipping notifications, Netflix deliveries, and eBay auctions, and puts them on a special calendar. How will the Organizer help me with my Yahoo! Mail?Since Yahoo! Mail was one of the first email providers, some of you have had your Yahoo! Mail accounts for many years and have signed up for so many emails throughout the years that it has become overwhelming! After installing the Organizer application, you'll get instant Inbox relief!  You don't need to create a separate email address or do anything different. Just add the Organizer application, and everything happens automatically!What’s next?OtherInbox is committed to enhancing the Organizer application in the future by adding smarter filters, recognizing more events to put on your calendar, and automatically managing receipts and coupons.
